This volume is the first comprehensive handbook of Japanese
phonetics and phonology describing the basic phonetic and
phonological structures of modern Japanese with main focus on
standard Tokyo Japanese. Its primary goal is to provide a
comprehensive overview and descriptive generalizations of major
phonetic and phonological phenomena in modern Japanese by reviewing
important studies in the fields over the past century. It also
presents a summary of interesting questions that remain unsolved in
the literature. The volume consists of eighteen chapters in
addition to an introduction to the whole volume. In addition to
providing descriptive generalizations of empirical
phonetic/phonological facts, this volume also aims to give an
overview of major phonological theories including, but not
restricted to, traditional generative phonology, lexical phonology,
prosodic morphology, intonational phonology, and the more recent
Optimality Theory. It also touches on theories of speech perception
and production. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to
Japanese phonetics and phonology for all interested in linguistics
and speech sciences.
